Walkthrough[edit]

Jump off the ship onto the ice that is leading toward the island on the Southern side of the ship. Run along the ice and into the cave that it leads to.

Rise in the East

Inside the cave, be on guard for the Mudcrabs waiting for you. Then follow the Western slope upwards to the next chamber.

Rise in the East

You will find more Mudcrabs in this part of the cave as well. Be careful, making a lot of noise in this room can draw in Blood Horkers from the next room. Go through the hole in the wall to move forward. Kill off the pirate inside and then turn to the West.

Rise in the East

Go up the stairs there and through the door. This will take you into the next section of the area.

Rise in the East

Go on up the stairs through the door. Be careful on the first landing, there is a pressure plate that will trigger the spike wall on the left-hand side. Keep to the right to avoid the trap itself. Just be aware there is a Blood Horker that is patrolling the area. There is another Pirate waiting at the top of the stairs.

Rise in the East

This leads to a large round chamber with a door to the Southeast. You can find some sacks and other containers in this chamber. Otherwise, just head for the door to continue forward.

Rise in the East

Follow the corridor to the Southeast. Continue forward to the next chamber. Your target is getting close. Head though this chamber on the Northern side. Follow the stairs upward to reach the next chamber.

Rise in the East

Go through this final chamber. In the antechamber behind it, you will find your target if you have not made too much noise.

Rise in the East

It is time for you to deal with Haldyn. He can be found in a few places around this area. He is usually at the Arcane Enchanter. If you are very quiet, you can get a backstab in on him for massive damage. Otherwise, strafe him as much as possible to avoid being killed by his magic. Once below half health, he will start healing himself.

More can be found in the lower portions of the tower as well.
